Dynamic Analysis of the Mooring System for a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Spar Platform

摘要

Based on the 5 MV wind turbine of a certain renewable energy institute in America, the model of a floating offshore wind turbine spar platform mooring system has been established by Orcaflex. By calculating the load on the wind turbine, the hydrodynamic analysis of the wind turbine mooring system was researched and the mooring tension of the mooring system was analyzed in different load conditions. With the change of different fairlead position and different layouts of the fairleads, the optimization design of the mooring system has been given.
